Launch X431 CRP919E Review Best BiDirectional For The Money

Рет қаралды 43,920

Жыл бұрын

I review the LAUNCH X431 CRP919E OBDII bidirectional scan tool that was recently released to compete directly with the XTOOL D7, and the AUTEL 808 series of automotive scanners. This tool features bidirectional control consisting of resets, actuation tests and special functions. I tested the tool on a Honda Civic and was impressed with the actuation tests I could perform. The Launch X431 CRP919E easily activated the radiator fan, windshield wipers, signals, door locks, and more just to name a few. You can view all live data PIDS from all modules in the vehicle in either text form, or graph form. The CRP919E is compatible with the newer protocols of CAN FD and DoIP. The CRP 919E reminds me of Snap-on scanners with its red body and black trim and buttons. The mechanical buttons are really nice for when your fingers wet/greasy and the screen won't respond. It also has an "automatically connect" feature that can be turned off in the settings. This features makes the tool automatically auto-vin the vehicle and intimately start a full system scan which checks all the modules. It is currently on sale at Amazon.

The power balance function for Fords is excellent. It’s very similar to the factory Ford scan tool. The graphing makes it easy to find intermittent misfires when the check engine light won’t set. I’m not sure if it does the same for other makes?

@GarageKing Жыл бұрын

Hey Thanks for the comment, I haven't tried it on a Ford yet so thanks for sharing that. I have used it on mainly Japanese cars and didn't need the power balance feature so I'm not sure how well it works on the Japanese. When you need it, it is an excellent often overlooked feature :)

I was looking for a easy to use, touch screen with buttons as options, actuator testing, and affordable scanner! I am definitely saving this in my wish list and buying it as soon as I can! Edit: wait… you have to pay for updates too?

@GarageKing 11 ай бұрын

It comes with 2 years free updates, so that is pretty good. The cheaper scanners (some of them) can have lifetime updates, but as you get into the better scanners they don't update forever. Remember the scanner will work without updates its just limited to the last update. We are 2023 so the scanner would be good scanning vehicle up to model year 2025. I love this scanner, used it on an Audi the other day.

I'm not sure about that. I find the coding for each manufacturer, along with the bi-directional capabilities varies, so I really can't say.

(the tests pop up once you are connected to the vehicle so its impossible to check without the vehicle) You could reach out to Kingbolen Auto Scanner Center, they are a big supplier of launch and they may know. They have a KZfaq channel and you can tag them @kingbolen_official Thanks

@SSid-or8rv 3 ай бұрын

I recently bought this and overall it's a nice upgrade over my Autel DiagLink. However, the one thing I didn't know prior to purchasing and it's quite important is that you can't monitor data pids and perform a bi-directional test both at the same time. So for example, if you want to see how the O2 sensors react while you turn on the evap purge valve...you can't do that. You can go into actuations and turn on the evap purge valve but you can't see the real-time o2 data stream.

Good to know, but I think that's how all scanners are? Except maybe the ones that run thousands.

I've been looking at countless videos about the launch crp919x, and this is possibly the best I've come across so far. It's definitely the best at highlighting the bidirectional capabilities! I was just wondering if you think the Bluetooth version is worth the money, or if the Bluetooth connection stability is anything to worry about? Thanks for the video!

@GarageKing 10 ай бұрын

Thank you for the vote of confidence !! I do like the Bluetooth as you can move the scanner everywhere, but some of the connections are not the greatest, and then certain functions won't work. With wired you have no problem, but with bluetooth you have to make sure you get an expensive unit. FYI - I have a bluetooth unit ($500 range) and I find I use the corded one more if that's any indication. I use the crp919x the most out of all the scanners I have tested.

Launch X321 CR919E might be over kill but I'm looking for a scan tool that would pull up actual mileage from BCM/Dash,Engine and ABS, not just from Dash. Would this one fit the bill? I'm driving a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. My first thought was to go with a THINKSCAN Plus S5 or S7.

@GarageKing 5 ай бұрын

The CR919E is a Bi-Directional scanner, it does a lot, and its these scanners that save a TON of time when you are diagnosing. For example, if you car is over heating you can command the cooling fan relay on and off, a very easy and quick way to start your checks. Thats just an example of the many things. The THINKSCAN S5 and S7 are just readers with a few reset functions, and to be honest the Xtool IP608 is only about 40 more and it will do way more. Its not a CRP919E, but it will do quite a bit. To answer your question about the mileage, most scanners will pull the mileage from the BCM, as that feeds the dash. If you are just looking to read things with a few resets the S7 will do, but for about 40 more, as I mentioned earlier the IP608 is just way more ahead. Then there is a gap where you pretty much have to double your money to start getting into true bi-directional scanners, and they can keep going well over $1000 depending on how advanced you want to go.

Hey there, the scanner will tell you what the code number, and what the code means. The scanner will also open its own browser and search for the code problems on the internet. I did another review of the X431 Pro Elite and its a step up from this one, but its a few hundred more.

Most mechanic use a secondary oscilloscope as scanners with them built in are quite expensive, Autel sells one but I think its around $4000USD. The CRP919e will give you some live data on the sensors, but I don't believe it will be in the oscilloscope pattern.

It will keep working, it just won't update. You will have all the features, you just wont be able to add newer cars. Right now we are in 2023 so in 2025 it would stop updating so if you had a 2026 car or newer it may not work depending on what you are scanning. Most vehicles are under warranty for a few years so the scanner will be good for quite a while. Just FYI - I bought a launch CRP429 and did a video on it years ago kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fuCAiqllndrSqGg.html , it still worked great after the updates stopped. I just felt it was time to upgrade to a better scanner. Right now there is a limited time deal, its cheaper than what I paid !!! amzn.to/3Kk6Mh5

You don't have to be connected to the internet to use it, but you must connect to update it if you wish. It has a browser that automatically searches for the codes to let you know what the common problems are. Also it describes the code, not just a reading. Not sure what you mean about monitoring, but it can reset. Please not that all vehicles are not the same and some functions do vary between vehicle.

Ive got the orginal x431 diagun 2 and thinking about upgrading. Wonder what the big difference beteen this model and the one model above this is. Seen this one for just over 500 and the other one is just over 700. I have to change my ecbm and wonder if either can reprogramms a abs module if i end up needing it Id definitely want the one thats good at adding and reprogramming keys also.

Hey there, the model above this one might be the one with topography mapping, which is a really cool feature (but I don't know how much you would actually use it) I guess I would have to get it to see. I know the 919 does a lot, but if you have been around for a while then you pretty much know the more you spend the more you get (generally) but I hear what you are saying. Is it worth it, and are those features I will use. The 919 can add keys, but it varies on the car manufacturer.

@@GarageKing I read it works with cars that have a weak security,guess to do it all I'm probably gonna need the extra add on key programmer. But the elite right now on Amazon is $717 and I can pay $114 a month on it. I still haven't figured out everyday diagun 2 can do lol. I've changed a caliper and then some brake lines and never knew it can start the abs motor and can bleed with 1 person. I was using one of the ratcheting truck bed dividers on the brake pedal against the seat lol.

Yes, kind of.... You still need to have one key working, it will NOT DO ALL KEY LOST functions meaning you can't reprogram a can with no keys. This prevents theft. Also its only ONLY available for Asian vehicles with early IMMO systems. NOT intended for AUDI, Benz, BMW, or VW which have advanced IMMO systems. Hope this helps.

Actually this scanner will probably still work if you have a one key, what it can't do is ALL KEYS LOST so it should just program the replacement key to the existing one, then do another key. I'm not 100% sure but I think it would probably work. I've never reprogrammed a GM so I'm not sure if it needs a signal from the other key when its doing its thing, if it doesn't then it will work.

@@FairladyS130 When you use it for the first time you must go on wifi to update it. You can click on wifi, and then enter the password for the wifi. The password is whatever the person who owns the wifi sets it at. So if you are at your friends, click on his wifi and ask him for the password. If you are at a Starbucks, Mcdonald's, open wifi etc. I don't think it will work because even though you don't need a password, you must accept the terms and conditions and the launch has no way to do that. So it must be done on a wifi network where you know the password, so at a home is best. Hope this helps.
